Crunch Time

Astute readers will have noticed that my posting has fallen off, of late. There's a reason for that.

A week ago Monday, my lovely wife's car was hit from behind while she waited at a stop sign. While the car is still drivable, she is suffering from the whiplash which resulted as she was looking over her left shoulder at the time, awaiting an opportunity to merge. There are torn ligaments & bruised chest muscles; she's in a lot of pain, has not been released to go back to work, and is on very strong pain meds.

I've been doing double duty, taking all the chauffeuring of Younger Daughter to/from work, extra driving & errands which we normally divide between us. This, plus concern for her, is more than enough distraction to keep me from blogging normally.

Things will return to normal, eventually. Meanwhile, I've got to take her car to the body shop this morning.

Been there. Jewel Lake & Raspberry, minivan that decided my car made a great auxiliary braking device while I was looking for cross traffic. She has my deepest sympathies and heartfelt hopes for a smooth and speedy recovery.

If you want a physical therapist with thumbs of titanium, great sense of humor, and weakness for boston cream pie, I can highly recommend the woman who put me back together afterward.

About Me

I believe in the Constitution, strength in national defense, limited government, individual freedom, and personal responsibility as the concrete foundation for American government. They reinforce the resolve that the United States is the greatest country in the world and we can all be eternally grateful to our founding fathers for the beautiful legacy they left us today. Above all, we must remember that all of man’s freedoms come ultimately from God.
